Behavioural changes reduced risk of Breast Cancer: According to WHO statistics, in 2020 one crore people died due to cancer. Most of these women died due to breast cancer. WHO says that in 2020, about 23 lakh women reached for treatment of breast cancer. Of these, 6.85 lakh women died. In India too, there has been a spurt in deaths due to breast cancer.

Breast cancer begins with the epithelial cells lining the lobules or ducts of the breast. It is difficult to detect in the beginning.

However, like other cancers, breast cancer is not caused by any infection or virus. Nor is it an infectious disease. There are many reasons for breast cancer in women. If it is detected in the beginning, then it can be treated 100%. But it becomes difficult to treat in the advanced stage. That’s why prevention from breast cancer is the better option.
